Adding blue Ziller ink, in various stages of dilution… #workinprogress #wip #originalart #watercolorground #zillerink #poscapen

Works in progress. In the ugly adolescent phase, when I’m afraid they will never turn into anything I’m pleased with. I always struggle with this phase… I have to always remind myself that it always feels like this! (And this is why I rarely accept commissions anymore. I can handle this feeling when it’s just for me. But when there’s a client on the other end, waiting for something spectacular, oh, the pressure!! ?) #wip #workinprogress #creativesandbox #creativesandboxway #originalart

Didn’t get to any Creative Sandbox playtime this morning. Some days are like that. But I did get to it just now!

It doesn’t matter *when* you do it. It matters *that* you do it.
I find the thing I do FIRST is the thing that gets DONE, which is why im@a big believer in slotting my Creative Sandbox playtime in early in my day.

But some days are weird. Outliers. Crazy. So you do what you can.

And if it doesn’t happen at all?
Take a fresh start the next day! You always get to take a fresh start.

Remember, falling off track is never the problem. The only problem is when you don’t get back ON track.

The most important practice is simply getting back on the wagon. And doing so with gentleness and self-compassion.

Onward, ho!
